Landing in New Orleans (MSY)

This is a video of the landing in New Orleans, LA at Louis Armstrong International Airport (MSY). The flight was on an American Airlines MD-80 and flew from Chicago O'hare International Airport (ORD). You can see a lot of Jefferson Parish and the lakefront.

The landing in New Orleans is one of the nicest landings out there.

Boeing 787 "Dreamliner" Debut - 7/8/07

As many aircraft fanatics know, the Boeing Company has been working on a series of next-generation aircraft. They include the 787-8, 737-900ER, and the 747-8. More information can be found on the aircraft at http://www.newairplane.com/. The highly anticipated Boeing 787 "Dreamliner" will be unveiled to the public on July 8, 2007. This, as far as I know, will revolutionize air travel as we know it. It will create a new standard of passenger comfort, while maximizing profit potential for the airlines that run it. Several American air carriers have placed orders for the aircraft. They include, but are not limited to Continental, Northwest Airlines, and American Airlines. I am looking forward to seeing this new aircraft in action, and it won't be much longer until I will.

AA to Introduce New Lie-Flat Business Class Seats

American Airlines recently announced that it would be installing its new next-generation business class seats on every 767-300 and 777-200 in its fleet. The new seats will convert to lie-flat beds with comfortable duvets and soft pillows. The manufacturer, known as Recaro, also prides itself on the newly-designed IFE system. The seat also has many other innovating features like Bose QuiteComfort 2 Noise Cancelling Headsets, swiveling fold-away tables, six-way adjustable headrests, and adjustable seat pitches. These seats have been highly anticipated ever since their preview at the ITB, the world's leading travel fair, in Berlin, Germany. They were officially unveiled to the National Business Travel Association (NBTA) convention in Chicago, IL. I personally believe that this will set a new standard in the business travel industry and, with time, will have other airlines coming up with a new formula for business travel. This, in my opinion, is pure innovation.
